Passion a wave, surges with crests and troughs, always pulsing throbbing
Tides that raise and fall driven by moon, winds, pushes and ebbs, never constant
Always present, in violent storms it destroys, its destruction leaves sobbing
Changing colors of the sea, the liquid heart of you and me
Love, not sun or moon nor guiding star but what we are, always present
The lighthouse inside, a guiding beam through storms on a perilous sea
Though breakers batter, beat the shore, built on solid rock, secure, quiescent
Will guide you home, safe and sure to what you adore, whatever you be

Philosophical and truly feels like when we free our souls just to look at the light instead of the dark. A revolution for so many to be able to see the cup half full and thus appreciate what we have. A great piece of wisdom with marvelous imagery. 🌹

Duality of the human soul. Both guiding light and overwhelming wave !
Thank you Lorenz. Passion and Love two intertwined but separate mixed we confuse the two and call them one but very different.
Great poem about love and passion.
Thank you so much Priya for the review. You have it in a nutshell.
the poem revolves around the tumultuous nature of love and passion, likening them to the unpredictable waves of the sea. The poem explores how love can bring both intense joy and profound sorrow, much like the tides that are influenced by external forces. The focuses on the relationship between love, emotional turmoil, and the steadfastness of hope and guidance symbolized by the lighthouse.
Thank you Friendship for the review and interpretation. Passion unpredictable comes from without, love internal comes from within and is unshakable
You're most welcome, my friend.
Very well written. I could feel the motion of the waves and tide when reading it.
Awesome poem.
